Purpose:

Purpose: Returns a vector containing estimates of the reciprocal square roots of the corresponding elements of the source vector.

Result value: Each element of output contains the estimated value of the reciprocal square root of the corresponding element of a.

Endian considerations: None.

Notes: For finite square roots, this intrinsic guarantees at least 14 bits of accuracy.

Result:

vector float

Prototypes

Assembly Instruction:
XVRSQRTESP
Usage:
vector float output = vec_rsqrte( vector float a )
Example:
#include <altivec.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
 vector float a = {
  1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0
 };
 vector float result = vec_rsqrte(a);
 float output[4];
 vec_st(result, 0, output);
 printf("Result: %f %f %f %f\n", output[0], output[1], output[2], output[3]);

 return 0;
}
Assembly Instruction:
XVRSQRTEDP
Usage:
vector double output = vec_rsqrte( vector double a )
Example:
#include <altivec.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
 vector double a = {
  1.0, 1.0
 };
 vector double result = vec_rsqrte(a);
 double output[2];
 vec_st(result, 0, output);
 printf("Result: %f %f\n", output[0], output[1]);

 return 0;
